How Much Will Windows 7 Cost?

Ah that's it, i friggin hate microsoft. So i have to spit up 200 bucks to upgrade my half finished windows 7 (also called vista...) to get the complete version? And that's because i have vista? That's just stupid.

If they think I'd pay that much, they can think again. If I buy a laptop for uni, then It's going to be one without an OS which then I install linux on.

do you even know if windows 7 is better than vista?

It had better be amazing for $200-400, seeing as you could get an OS for free!

well, let's just hope they were too busy making it perfect to make any piracy protection. But i'm guessing they didnt, so i'm not downloading it. Plus using a pirated OS is pretty much computer suicide

We had a pirated version of XP for years. it was only when the computer crashed that my dad found out.

and it worked alright? no hijacking, total computer death or spontaneous computer explosions?

We don't know that yet, but, I know a lot of people that have tried the betas, and were blown away!

I'm still skeptical though.

Hmm, i'm waiting for the reviews and details. If they're good (200 bucks better than vista), it's a deal. If not, microsoft can bite my not very shiny not very metal arse (I'm going to love you for all eternity if you know where the original version comes from)

Wow. Till 2010? Do they want people to hack it better than with the first RC?

Pfft. Don't throw Futurama quotes around, amateur.

B-but, futurama is my life! IT'S ALL I HAVE!!!

And 2010 isnt that bad. We're in 2009, remember? It's only a year. You cant do much in one year.


Edit- AH GOD FREAKING DAMNIT. Those fudging idiots at fudgeheadsoft are only selling preorders to americans. I looked at microsoft sweden and they didnt say anything about windows 7, they only have it on the US online store. FUDGING IDIOTS. That's it, i'm pirating it if i'm not getting a lower price for having vista. I'm not paying 69 bucks extra because i'm european, i bought their poop half finished and renamed windows 7 too (vista).

You could crack it in a week, well, if you know what you're doing.

I'm not pro in assembly, so poo for me.
